To open the Dashboard: - Click **Dashboard** in the Main Menu. - Select Fabric Maintenance from the dropdown. ![](https://cdn.document360.io/e492a0e0-a4ba-4aca-8fc6-76b95f91fdf3/Images/Documentation/image-4LQW759L.png?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-10-28T17%3A36%3A44Z&se=2026-10-28T18%3A36%3A44Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=iWaAWSUpBbRC8BCUmIwxo0X6RrFp5hMN%2F06%2FQCXo%2BZE%3D) Navigate to the Dashboard Main Screen and select the **Fabric Maintenance** Dashboard. ## FMA Areas Dashboard The FMA Areas Dashboard is used to manage polygons corresponding to AREA-FLOCs, while displaying those areas on a 2D map of a Site. From the FMA Areas Dashboard, you can: - Create AREA-FLOCs; - Create, Edit, and Delete polygons associated with AREA-FLOCs. - Assign other FLOCs to AREA-FLOCs. To open the Dashboard: - Click **Dashboard** in the Main Menu. - Select FMA Areas from the dropdown. ![](https://cdn.document360.io/e492a0e0-a4ba-4aca-8fc6-76b95f91fdf3/Images/Documentation/image-2NOW05DQ.png?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-10-28T17%3A36%3A44Z&se=2026-10-28T18%3A36%3A44Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=iWaAWSUpBbRC8BCUmIwxo0X6RrFp5hMN%2F06%2FQCXo%2BZE%3D) Open FMA Areas Dashboard.
